- This may be made either by the receipt for greengage, or Mogul plum marmalade ;
- or the fruit may first be boiled quite tender, then rubbed through a sieve, and mixed with three-quarters of a pound of sugar to the pound of apricots : from twenty to thirty minutes will boil it in this case.
- A richer preserve still is produced by taking off the skins, ^nd dividing the plums in halves or quarters, and leaving them for some hours with their weight of fine sugar strewed over thejn before they are placed on the fire ;
- they are then heated slowly an.l gej'tiy simmered for about half an hour.
